Is This Justified?

Tunneling Hillbilly that abuses Tinkerer 2 bug - I play the game to have fun, and getting tunneled by a Tinkerer 2 abuser is not under what I classify as fun, so is my dc justified, what do you guys think?

    Can’t say I condone D/C’s but... I’d look the other way in this case.

    I don't think that abusing any bug is fine. It's wasn't okay when survivors climbed on that rock in Autohaven Wreckers and it's not okay now. I'm don't blame you for disconnecting when someone is abusing a bug like that, but I don't think it was the best way to react. By disconnecting, you put the other survivors in an even worse place. It's not your obligation to do this, but I think it would've been better to stick around and help the others out the best you can. At the very least, try to get a few more bloodpoints instead of throwing them all away. It's not fun, but might as well get the most you can out of the match. I can understand why you disconnected, but it wasn't the best thing to do, in my opinion.

    Appreciate the criticism, thanks. It's pretty annoying to deal with a tunneling Hillbilly in swamp with tinkerer 2 and ruin up, so I just decided to dc and move on to a different match, I guess I did f*** over my teammates.

    oh, yeah.  entirely justified.  tunneling may be a necessity for killers (for those that wish to rank up) but seriously...leave me out of it.  i play to enjoy myself, not be someone's trolling toy.

    I got tunneled to death by a Myers a few matches ago, he had tombstone and I was dying light obsession, so I don't mind getting tunneled, but if you're tunneling me while abusing of Tinkerer 2 then there's no fun in playing that match.

    in the killer's defense, he may very well not know the condition of the perk.

    That could be true, but highly doubtful. I guess I'll never know now :P

    By now it's probably quite well known, 1 or 2 games ok but after that you're knowingly abusing it.

    so are you DCing because he tunnels or because he uses a bug? because if its about the bug, why keep mentioning the tunneling.

    if i was the killer abusing the bug i would probably understand why you DC i guess. i dunno.

    but it could be he doesnt know about it, so from his point of you you're an ass? i dont know. so many possibilities.

    If survivors do a gen to 99% while the killer has tinkerer. His terror radius stays at 0. So survivors are shooting themselves into the foot by using this tactic.

    I don't use tinkerer, because I don't want to be accused of abusing a bug, when survivors cause it.

    It wasn't just tunneling. It was the combination of the bug, tunneling, swamp map.

    It triggers when you get a gen to 85% of completion, not when you leave a gen at 99%, so basically as soon as the first gen gets to 85% even if it pops the killer will have 0 terror radius for the rest of the match.

    Well I see it as the crotus penn glitch. Or the DH glitch that enabled survivors to reach unreachable spots or even leave the match while the gates are closed.
    Survivors loved to abuse that ######### and even defended it. Now killers got a jumpscare glitch and suddenly it's not fun anymore.

    Funny how that goes.

    Ofc it is, and everyone should do the same since exploiters aren't getting banned. I don't care if they get the BP for survivors' dc, i play for fun.

    So the killer doesnt even do anything? How is this an exploit then?
    You can hardly bann a killer for equiping the perk tinkerer 2 then, or did I understand you wrong?

    I have a video of a hillbilly running tinkerer 2 and it is HARD as hell to know where he's coming from if that chainsaw isn't going. I could only here foot steps at some points in the match .

    Because some people are equipping/not leveling up Tinkerer 2 on purpose to abuse of the bug.
    I’m not saying everyone that uses it is doing it on purpose, some might not know it’s bugged, but there’s plenty that do know and abuse of it.

    **Some survivors** 

    I never abused of any of those glitches and there’s probably more people out there that didn’t either, so I’m in my right to complain about someone abusing a bug that doesn’t let me know if the killer is near me or not.
